Chapter 285 "Old Madam Dong Fainted (2)"

“What’s wrong with being a concubine? Which man doesn’t have a concubine? It’s normal for a man to have three or four wives. How can she alone demand not to share her husband?"

Seeing how disobedient her husband was acting, Fu Bao Yun nearly went mad there. She"s used to having her way and won"t take it in any other form otherwise.

“But… but I have never taken a concubine after taking you as my wife…" Timid as ever, the man attempts to rebuke his wife.

“Humph, you actually dare to compare me with your sister! I am a princess of this kingdom! Your sister? She"s but a daughter of the Dong House, how can you even think to put her in my position? The fact that I"m willing to degrade myself into marrying you is your greatest honor, don"t you even think about taking on a concubine!"

A Royal Consort, that"s such a good opportunity. How can they even refuse such a proposal?

Her relations.h.i.+p with the king had never been all that close to begin with, that"s why she wanted Dong Ruolan to become her brother"s consort back then. It"s to build up on that connection and increase her influence.

But what did this blasted group do? Send the girl far, far away so she can be married to that d.a.m.nable Lan family.

“For Lan Xiaoyun to become my third nephew"s consort is her greatest fortune. So what if he"s a b.a.s.t.a.r.d? At the very least he"s the Queen"s own child and a legitimate member of the Royal Family. You should be bowing to me for giving you people this chance!"

Now that did it, the man couldn"t even make a peep at this point. What can he say? The dude still thinks he"s the one that owed his wife.

“Wife!” Suddenly Dong Tian Ling exclaims from the side. It"s because his wife, Old Madam Dong, had fainted away from that outrageous state.

Crimson in his old eyes, Old Lord Dong could no longer take it: “It seems today you two really want to force me and your old mother to the coffin! Alright, someone come, bring me my sword! I will show the world how unfilial you two really are by killing myself!"

As unreasonable and shameless as this Fu Bao Yun was, not even she can withstand this shocking threat from her father-in-law. Its one thing to knock Dong Ruolan unconscious, it"s a whole different matter to force her parents into self-mutilation. Just the public outcry will drown her to death!

Despite her fear, the woman continues to put on a strong front: "Humph, fine, I will let you people off the hook just because you are my husband"s parent. However, Lan Xiaoyun must be married off this time. Whether or not she"s willing is not up to her! She will marry and she will marry happily!"

The Royal Family taking in a consort should be a joyous occasion. To have the girl in question weeping and crying on the important date would be catastrophic for the mood.

“You still not leaving!” Dong Tian Ling was truly enraged. If not for his good upbringing, the old lord would"ve really went forward to hurt this woman.

"Father, I"m only advising you. Considering Lan Xiaoyun"s status, what glory it is for her to marry the third prince. Moreover, it"s likely His Highness will become the next king. Even if you don"t care for the connection, you should at least put into consideration for Little Xue and Little Lin"s future, right?"

Dong Mu Xue was their daughter and Dong Mu Lin was their son. If they can push Lan Xiaoyun into the palace then it will be a great boon to helping their children in the future. For that reason alone Dong Ruo Qin would have no reason to help his father and go against his wife.

As expected, that was enough to shut the old lord up. Turning away from his son, Dong Tian Ling went back to tending his wife and help the old granny up to the bed where their daughter lay.

Seeing how the old grandfather was now completely ignoring them, Fu Bao Yun was the first to leave. She"s not so silly to keep making things difficult for herself when the other side clearly didn"t want her around.

Like a proud peac.o.c.k, she stomps out of the room like she"s the mistress, leaving behind her husband alone watching.

At first Dong Ruo Qin still wanted to stay, but when he tried, his wife immediately hollered for him from the outside. Sure enough, his will to stay quickly crumbled like a timid mouse facing a predatory cat.
